When my colleague said this, I expected to see Chen Yuan's shocked face, but to my surprise, he acted calmly and calmly.
"Have you forgotten where Du Yu is now? What are you doing?"
The colleagues were stunned. Not all of them were introduced by Du Yu, but everyone always had channels to get some information. Du Yu was different from them and took a different path.
Now, it is said that on a certain mountain in the imperial capital...
cough.
He looked serious: "I understand."
Although he "understood", he continued to pass on this "understanding" to others, so that when the 23 people got on the bus neatly the next day, their expressions were so solemn that the bus driver with whom they had negotiated was a little nervous.
My heart was pounding.
Just, just say it!
In fact, his acting skills are also good. If there is really a secret mission, at least let him know everything about it.
And your big and small suitcases, are the contents in them legal and safe? You have to hire a bus to negotiate the price for any task...
After a while, I peeked at the rearview mirror again, holding the steering wheel in my hand, wondering if my price was a bit high...
hiss!
This should be reimbursed by the state, right? He doesn’t charge much more... But if this is later declassified and shown on TV, or if there is a hidden camera lens or something like that, why would I have the nerve to blow it out if it costs a lot of money...
Just as he was thinking about it, his eyes suddenly met a pair of particularly sharp eyes in the rearview mirror. The driver's heart was excited and he immediately lowered the price.
Zhu Xinyu, who withdrew his eyes, silently took out his mobile phone: "Chen Yuan, is the driver you found reliable? Why do I feel that his eyes are a little timid? As if he feels guilty?"
"If he is driving seriously, what is he guilty of?"
Chen Yuan:……
Can he say that he will not bargain? Maybe the price has not been lowered, and the driver feels guilty now looking at their posture?
As soon as this thought turned around, they heard the driver whisper to them again:
"Ahem...that...that...the Chinese New Year is coming...I'll give you another 100."
The normal bus price is 20 yuan per person, but because this bus was booked at 6:30 in the morning just to arrive at work before 8 o'clock, the price was 600 yuan.
But now let’s give it another hundred…
Chen Yuan felt a little happy and nodded calmly: "Okay. Thank you."
The driver felt relieved and became happy!
…
The car drove forward smoothly. Although the driver's heart was about to jump, the steering wheel and accelerator remained steady.
When the car came to the country road, he felt the less serious atmosphere in the car and relaxed now.
"Look at this road, it's pretty good, isn't it? It was repaired very quickly last year."
"Otherwise, the old road would be full of potholes and turns, and our cars wouldn't like to go that way. The road is unfamiliar and bumpy, so there's no way we could take the wrong car."
But what everyone in the car was thinking was - it all has something to do with that side, so it's only natural that the road should be repaired.
So each of them responded in a reserved voice, and the topic was over.
driver:……
He became more and more convinced that everyone was not simple anymore. He knew he shouldn't ask, but at this moment he still couldn't restrain his eagerness to move.
After a while, he asked softly:
"Um...what are you going to do? I heard from our driver friend that Yunqiao Village seems to have had people come several times this year."
But isn’t it just a poor mountain village? It’s no different from other villages in these ten miles and eight townships. Why did it suddenly become popular?
Are there any attractions? Or are internet celebrities here to check in?
He inquired eagerly and wanted to get some information for other drivers.
Now that we are not facing relatives, everyone is much calmer. Chen Yuan, who is closest, also said:
"Oh, it's nothing, they're just recruiting security guards, we'll apply."
The driver was speechless.
He thought to himself that if there is a mission, there is a mission. If you shouldn't talk too much, you can't talk too much!
Judging by this question, people still have to come up with excuses... Whose security guard is like this?
How can one village recruit so many people? Could it be that something really big happened? Or maybe some big shot paid a private visit incognito?
He silently noted this down and couldn't wait to share the news.
…
At Lao Song's house, Qiao Qiao had already stood on tiptoe and looked at the door several times.
While watching, he took a bowl and took two bites of rice, and then asked:
"Why haven't those cool brothers come yet?"
"Hey, you've asked me two or three times." Ulan was a little impatient: "Is there any food ready in the kitchen? Don't wait until those cool brothers of yours come and get hungry."
As he spoke, he hummed twice: "I hope your mother has never been so attentive."
Qiao Qiao doesn't look forward to her mother. After all, he is in such a state and is always at home. What is there to look forward to?
Even if he looked forward to it, he only looked forward to it two years ago when Wulan occasionally went out to work. But now there are too many happy memories, and those have long been washed away.
He then said seriously:
"It's all ready! You have to wait for someone to come before you can cook it freshly, that way it will be delicious!
This morning he cooked rice noodles and porridge, steamed rice cakes, steamed buns, made rolls... everything!
It just depends on what the brothers like to eat.
Teacher Xin said that the first impression is very important and should account for at least 40% of the overall image!
Now, these brothers will have to work with Dabao and the others to protect their family's land, which is very, very important!
If you don't like your home, it will be very troublesome.
Therefore, he, Song Qiaoqiao, is the current chef of the old Song family - well, he will be the seventh cousin at noon, and the seventh cousin will start arriving at noon today.
In short, limited-time chef Song Qiaoqiao must give everyone a particularly good first impression this morning!
However, everyone in the family has finished breakfast soon, why haven't they come yet?
Seeing him opening his mouth to ask another question, Song Tan quickly said:
"By the way, Qiao Qiao, here are the new security guards. They want to cooperate with King Dabao and the others, but we have to ask them to recognize them first."
"Otherwise, after you have eaten, ride your bike to the mountain first, then go to the river beach, call all the dogs over, and let everyone get acquainted with each other first. It will be easier for them to arrange cooperation later."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In fact, today is only the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, there is nothing in the field, and there is no rush at all.
But since Qiao Qiao couldn't stay idle, she might as well find something to do.
Otherwise, I would watch my children running back and forth in the yard...
Hmm... quite cute.
The idea she casually came up with seemed very reasonable to Qiao Qiao, so he nodded heavily, finished his meal in a few mouthfuls, then mounted Da Duo and whizzed up the mountain behind him.
Ulan was still shouting from behind: "Zip it for me, don't let your stomach get cold just after eating!"
…
At the end of the road, a bus slowly slowed down and drove towards this direction.
The driver followed the navigation and looked at the white-walled and gray-tiled villa in front of him hidden behind the bamboo forest. At this moment, he said "Oh!"
“It’s quite beautiful!”
Then he sighed: "How beautiful it would be if there were two red lanterns at the door!"
Chen Yuan and others also looked over curiously and slightly uneasily.
The driver walked around the bamboo forest, looked at the bright concrete floor at the door, honked the horn and slowly stopped the car.
When the car door opened, he got out of the car and tried to open the side storage door, but he stiffened.
Because in front of me, on the flat ground and at the entrance of the yard, a large group of dogs ran out from nowhere!
It doesn’t matter that the four front dogs are majestic with black backs, but the three big native dogs in the middle are also strong and have shiny hair.
The other four either wore fancy eye patches or were sitting there motionless.
There were two more border collies, tilting their heads slightly, looking curiously at the man in front of them.
The driver couldn't quite identify the breed of this dog, but their unified spirit and spirit were exactly the same...
This, this, this!
This is really not an ordinary family, right?
These dogs are not something ordinary families can raise! The driver became more and more convinced.
As if aware of his harmless behavior, the two border collies on the edge let out a "bark", and several dogs also moved silently and got ready.
And at this moment, a deep, majestic and loud sound suddenly came from the yard——
"Woof!"
The sound was really thick and completely different from the imaginary barking of a dog.
The driver looked up and was completely stunned.
I saw a dog as big as a tiger walking slowly out of the yard.
Its physique was too tall and strong, and the undulations of its muscles as it moved were particularly astonishing. Even the look it looked at was quite intimidating, as if it could pounce on him and bite his throat out at any time.
But look at those teeth... they can really bite them, right?
The driver froze in place, unable to move.
At this moment, there is only one thought circulating in my mind: "Something big happened, something big happened, something big happened, something big happened..."
What kind of big event does this have to be to deserve this kind of specifications?
And what kind of big shot needs to be equipped with such a secret and rare security force for a private visit incognito?
As an average person, he has only watched "X-Wolf" and "Sniper Rifle"!
What goes deeper is completely unimaginable.
At this moment, I turned around and looked at the more than 20 young men standing next to me who were also standing like loose trees...
hiss!
…
Qiaoqiao was making a new spicy dish in the kitchen, and the sound of hot oil blocking the movement outside suddenly came out.
And Lu Chuan still has work to do every day. With his self-control, he will never be distracted by these things unless he completes the set tasks.
Therefore, no one who cared enough to inform Qiao Qiao was unable to see it immediately, which made him extremely upset.
But at this moment, seeing him come out, a dozen dogs also swarmed up happily, running around in the yard, sniffing the new people from time to time, obviously very curious.
The other members of the Lao Song family also came to the door at this moment.
Everyone took a quick look and saw a row of young men like poplars standing there. It was very pleasing to the eye!
Even if some young men are not so good-looking, they still look more pleasing to the eye than others if they have that kind of spirit and energy.
Chen Yuan moved his palm on the side of his leg, then took a deep breath, then took a step forward and stretched out his hand to Song Tan, the girl who seemed to be in charge in the video:
"Hello, I'm Chen Yuan, I'm here to report."
Song Tan was startled, and shook his hand with a smile. Then he asked, "It's been a hard journey. You haven't had breakfast, right? Let's eat first. We can put things away after dinner."
After saying that, he looked at the driver on the side of the bus. He obviously had no intention of leaving.
And leaving people aside is obviously not in line with the way of hospitality in rural areas.
Ulan then also greeted warmly:
"Master, would you like to come in and have something to eat together?"
The driver's desire for gossip was so intense that he couldn't even say a single polite word, and could only make symbolic remarks:
"This isn't appropriate..."
After finishing speaking, before Ulan could react, he immediately followed him in a few steps:
"Excuse me for disturbing you. I'll leave you a phone number later. Find me in the car next time, and I'll definitely calculate the lowest price for you - ask these big brothers, is this the lowest price this morning?"
When I got off the bus, I received a transfer on my mobile phone. It was indeed 500 yuan after discount, so the driver felt confident in what he said.
At this moment, I thought about it and emphasized: "Don't worry, I keep my mouth shut! I can keep it secret!"
Wulan was a little confused. Do I need to keep it secret when renting a car?
But she still took her mobile phone and wrote down the number: "Okay, I'll call you if I need anything in the future - come, let's eat first. We're all in the kitchen. You can eat whatever you want."
The courtyard is really spacious, and when a group of people walked in, they didn't feel crowded at all.
Including the kitchen, it is also spacious and bright.
The stove and the food preparation table in front are large and clean, and the ingredients are carefully placed there for easy use.
Next to it are large pots of steamed buns, rice cakes and porridge.
Over there, the unique aroma of chili peppers is also attracting people.
Qiao Qiao was taking rice noodles out of the pot and asked seriously: "Who wants to eat rice noodles? If you want to eat sour soup, it's the row on the left."
This posture was obviously carefully prepared, and was not done casually just because of breakfast.
Chen Yuan and others felt a little warm in their hearts. They looked at each other and were not polite. Instead, they smiled at Qiao Qiao and said sincerely:
"Thank you for your hard work."
Wow, what formal words! It seems that no one has ever said such words to Qiao Qiao in this tone!
His eyes lit up, and then he followed Lu Chuan's usual appearance, tightening the corners of his mouth in a reserved manner to avoid showing his emotions and appearing immature.
Then he heated the oil in the pan again: "I'll fry an egg for each of you! Let's serve it with... um, three pieces of fried pork belly."
Ulan walked by, knowing that this was an important member of the family in the future, so he had to endure his heartache and pretended not to know what the price of eggs was nowadays.
But when I think about it again, none of these things are cheap... Oh, just eat what you have to eat. Young and old men are all in this situation, traveling thousands of miles just to be a security guard...
It's not easy.
Thinking about this, she said to Qiao Qiao: "For such a big boy, who can eat three pieces of meat? Cut two more pieces."
On the other hand, he quickly explained to everyone:
"I won't give you anything too greasy in the morning. At noon, Master Jiang from the canteen on the mountain will come. His skills are very good!"
"I specifically asked you to braise the pork ribs and braised pork today. Let's eat them when the time comes!"
